The MAC Prabal Gurung collection
The gold that graces each product in MAC’s new 14-piece Prabal Gurung collection doesn’t just make the packaging gorgeous. It fashions a world! It produces an experience! These pieces look so elegant that they might pass for pendants hanging from a popular rapper’s gold chains.
They might likewise most likely pass for genuine gold bars.

Nu, serios. These bit bricks are heavy! — so heavy, in fact, that if I were to decrease one on my foot, I’d most likely requirement stitches.
Or, to put it one more way, if I were to put all of them in a handbag as well as swing it around, it would make one hell of a fine medieval weapon.

That the pieces might potentially double as weaponry is just one of lots of things I like about this new partnership between MAC as well as fashion designer Prabal Gurung…who, I must say, was most likely aiming a lot more for elegance, class as well as grace than hip-hop jewelry.

The embossed compacts have a traditional heft as well as a commanding voice that states “opulence,” while the marriage of the matte makeup in the collection as well as shiny gold is sure to make lots of packaging paramours geek-out.
Before that, though, they’ll have to prepare themselves to pay a quite penny, since MAC likewise upped the costs of these pieces to show luxury, ala Aerin as well as Tom Ford.

The cost boost is additional unpleasant when you think about the Bronzing Power. It consists of the exact same amount of product (0.35 ounces) as the Bronzing Powder in the long-term line, however instead of costing $25…it’s $70.
Holy sh*t! I mean, yeah, it’s silky, soft as well as smooth, however that’s a difference of 180%.
If you can get over that preliminary sticker shock, I do believe the collection has some beauties, particularly if you like makeup that’s downplayed as well as elegant.
The vibe reminds me of Aerin (especially the grays, neutrals as well as soft pinks), like Aerin makeup seen with a MAC lens, or nearly like Brooke Shields, part Deux.
If that speaks with your soul, keep an eye out for the Eye shadow Duo in Cinder (the light gray shade is divine!) as well as the Lipglass in Light English Red, a neutral, long-lasting pinkish beige that must go well with a lot of anything.

This is the type of collection that looks ahead to weekends in the Hamptons, with pigments on the sheer side as well as sheens instead of shimmers.
It seems like MAC is courting a extremely certain demographic right here — maybe a a lot more mature gal who still likes her MAC, however is a lot more thinking about subtle complexities than potent pigments as well as bright colors.
